Local News and Crime
The local news paints a picture of blacks as violent and threatening. When the media covers blacks being accused of a crime, the blacks are more likely to be shown in mug shots or in physical custody of a police officer. TV news coverage showing blacks being physically restrained happens twice as often as similar coverage of white defendants. This insidious bias sends a visual message that blacks deserve to be physically restrained because they are more dangerous than any other race. Yet even black crime victims get less media attention. And consider this:
1. African-Americans are rarely asked for their opinions and rarely seen giving expert advice.
2. Media images of African-Americans are more likely to be in ei
ther entertainment or blue-collar jobs.
3. When African-Americans are covered, they are predominantly featured in stories about affirmative action, crimes, welfare, or political unrest. Compare this to white persons, who usually appear in stories about business, elective politics, or other conventional activities. (Well this depends if the TV show writer is a scheming anti-white Jew)
Conservatively assuming that over 70 percent of Americans use TV news as their primary source of information, biased stories can powerfully influence viewers' sense of reality. For example, in a recent large drug bust featured on the news, police arrested ten alleged drug dealers--seven were white and three were black. Local news coverage showed all three of the black defendants and only one white one, even though the number of white defendants was more than double the number of black. Unfortunately, many viewers likely paid more attention to the screen instead of the story, internalizing the ev
ent as another black crime.
And when an African-American is involved in a major issue, all of a sudden it becomes the cornerstone of the negative story. Far after the Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill hearings, news features dealt with sexual harassment at work. After the Mike Tyson rape trial, stories about date rape were everywhere. During and after the O.J. Simpson trial, the media found it necessary to discuss domestic violence. In other words, the timing of the news stories tied the negative issue to the African-American male. To make matters worse, even years after these major events, the names, photos, and tape footage of these same African-Americans are used over and over in covering similar problems that permeate all of our society or culture. When covering Caucasian male criminals, the media makes sure you have sympathy for him too: "He was emotionally unstable," or "he had psychological problems and was on some medication" or "he came from an abusive home" (like Jeffrey Dahmer).
Have you
ever noticed that on local news shows anywhere in the country, when you do see a black news anchor, it's usually a black women anchor with a white male anchor? You rarely see a black male anchor. As if a brother can't cover serious news!
